    Rather than wait on the opinion of others, why don't you offer yours? Not bashing you by any means, but what is your take?

    I never thought that Les was any sort of god, I can assure you, or even that great of a HC. What I did think was that he was a decent guy who didn't get us into trouble with the NCAA, and as long as we were winning big there wasn't too much to complain about other than he had a tendency to be a buffoon on occasion. But, since he is sort of a lovable guy, I was content with letting that go.

    Right, and now, not only are our best players leaving, but our best coach is defecting to a division rival. When coaches start leaving; especially ones that are paid top dollar and are leaving for the same position at a lower tier school, that should tell anyone, especially the the pumpers, that something ain't right.

    Stace, I don't hate "him" I have never met the Man. The public persona that I do know I am actually quite fond of. It is his antiquated philosophy that drives me up a damn wall, it is the same philosophy that will run this program right into the ground.

    There is literally zero chance we win the west next year.

    I really like Miles the man. I like how he runs the program and what he stands for. I like and appreciate what he has done for LSU. I just can not tolerate the product on the field. The lack of coaching up kids. The lack of focus and game plans to start games.

    I do not see LSU winning the W either. I just can't see the players who were on the fence about staying, staying after today. I think AJ is a shot QB. LSU is not locking up the state like it once did.

    For me it is how we play, more than the record.

    Well said,

    The thing is its been going on for a while now. It compounds every year. Some hot shot that eats lunch with coaches and pro scouts will come here and tell you different but don't let your ears fool you. Your eyes don't lie.

    This thing has been slipping gears since 2007. Caught lightning in a bottle in '11 and then shit the bed.

    I hate it for LSU, I want the best for them but we are not even close and the wheels are coming off.

    They are all still looking for any pro miles points. They are an endangered species

    i hate to have to ignore someone but the paint chips were the most lead filled ones and its the most illogical arguments ive ever seen. just to defend miles. at least get the arguing points down first before you start arguing. its so weird.

    and by you i mean sherwin williams.

    and its weird to see the les miles defenders pile on chavis who has his weaknesses but has been the pillar of this program in spite of les miles ineptness.

    is this like parents who defend their child regardless? always looking to blame something or someone else.
